Eugene said he'll meet me after his training at 10.45 pm to have his dinner. Usually when this happens we'll end up in Dunman Food Centre or Kallang 24 hr Mc Donalds/KFC. But 2 nights ago I offered to cook for him. And so this post is about

The Iron Chef attempting to feed the Hungry Pitcher

(and I tell you, when I was searching online for a chef hat picture, this scary photo popped up and scared the daylights out of me)

I had 35 minutes to whip up something decent. No problemo. Gathered all the ingredients in 5 minutes. He hates celery but that's the only veggie I have in the fridge. Too bad ha! (Harwin, it is confirmed that you can't feed ayam brand chilli tuna to cats as it swells their upper larynxes)

Noodles in hot water chucked in microwave. Celery diced. Canned tuna lid pulled back. No sweat.

2220

Noodles out of oven, drained and tossed in cold water (like pro) while celery sat in hot water.

2225

Egg on teflon pan. Celery drained. Blotted fried egg with kitchen towel.

2225-2240

OMG Just look at this!!! Look like hospital food la!

(started to panic) I need garnishing! I need colour!

If only I had some red chillie and a Ginsu knife. Can make a star or a sotong thingy like in the photo. Quite pro hor. If he didn't like his dinner I might also use the knife to slice him up thinly heh

I don't believe this! We have two freakin refrigerators and all I could find were two sad looking tomatoes way past their prime. My brother saw my butt sticking out from the fridge and cracked up.

"Siao ah! So long zhong for wat?! Wah.. but your egg fry until quite nice la"

Eugene stepped into the kitchen during my weak attempt to colour the dish. He startled me and in my haste I even spilt some of the curry powder on the counter la .. :( super no skill.. haiz

With an icepack perched on his shoulder (top left corner), the hungry pitcher devoured his noodles, including every single cube of celery.

-burp-

He was happy.. So was I :D
